Captain Toolbox

The CAPTAIN Toolbox is a collection of MATLAB functions for non-stationary time series analysis, forecasting and control. It is useful for system identification, signal extraction, interpolation, data-based mechanistic modelling and control of a wide range of linear and non-linear stochastic systems.

Almost all the examples and associated figures from the book True Digital Control: Statistical Modelling and Non-Minimal State Space Design can be reproduced using the demonstration scripts (demos) included in the toolbox.
